Stylish Sanctuary - North Guiones Oasis - walk to Guiones beach

Perfect stay - great house - you need nothing more

Great stay

We selected this home for a trip with our four daughters and two of their friends for spring break (ages: 18, 18, 18, 16, 13, 13. We had originally booked a more upscale appearing home up the hill and opted for this one to be beach-walkable. We could not have been happier. - Excellent communication with the owner. I admit I was a bit wary of some recs at first, but turns out that this was a me-problem, not a them-problem. All the guidance we received from the owner and from the management company (Blue Sand) was great - accurate, timely, useful. - Extremely clean home, from the floors to the showers to the washer/dryer and dishwasher. Well stocked to keep it so. - Fully stocked kitchen that was well prepared for cooking. - Pool was warm and clean. We used the skimmer frequently to get the falling leaves out - easy and well worth having the shade and privacy. - Ultra safe with electronic gate, electronic deadbolts, and both a home- and away-mode alarm system. - Super excellent AC. Wish I had those. - Beds totally comfy. No sagging or other issues. - Oh, and did I mention that the house is lovely?- Totally walkable through Guiones and to the beach. Can’t quite Figure out why all the motos with Americans on them…surely didn’t need one. Summary: Excellent home away from home, great location, everything advertised and the management company was outstanding. We will be back - we’d seek out the same home and/or the same management company - both were great. Hats off.

Our family had a wonderful stay, for the 2nd year in a row, at Casa Serena. We love the local community, the friendships we have made in the area, the home and the management company. We are grateful for the experience.

We were a group of 2 families (4 adults and 4 children) we loved Nosara and the house, which was surrounded by beautiful rainforest and such a great location for easy walking to the beach. Nosara is wonderful, so many fitness options, endless surfing on the beach and incredible restaurants. It was a busy week in Nosara so best to reserve things and a few activities were fully booked but it didn’t stop our enjoyment. The house is beautiful and very well equipped

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Serena! This was a return trip to the Nosara area and we loved the location of this home in North Guiones. We walked everywhere we needed to go. Easy to walk to all restaurants, grocery, surf shop, beaches (Guiones and Pelada), and even all the way to Bodhi tree for yoga on the trail path through town. The house and kitchen were well appointed and full equipped with everything we needed. It was a lovely home and we look forward to returning!

Overall this was a good fit for our group of 4 couples over 2 weeks. The location is excellent for accessing Playa Guiones and Nosara restaurants but still in a quiet spot. The highlight is the outdoor pool area with the large palapa structure.

We were two adults and four kids (aged 7 - 15). The location of the house is great, short and easy walk to the beach, restaurants, shopping. The amenities of the house are as advertised - full kitchen, pool, four full bedrooms, really a luxury experience. The management team is superb. We had some problems on arrival with the locks and alarm not working properly but the management team took care of it quickly and professionally. We'll be glad to be back.

Everything was perfect. Thanks!

The house really was fabulous, so well appointed and very homely with some beautiful pieces of furniture. The kitchen had everything we needed, the outdoor showers were luxurious and we had lots of space for our two families of 4. The kids all enjoyed staying in the room with bunkbeds. The pool was big and the beautiful wooden traditional pergola was so wonderful to relax in and sit in the shade. The property is very central, about 5 min walk to the centre of town and 6-7 mins to the beach. The house comes with a concierge service who booked golf-carts, restaurants etc and attended to all our needs, and were immediately available on Whatsapp. We had such a fabulous stay and highly recommend.
